Micropatterning polypyrrole conducting polymer by pulsed electrical discharge

Polypyrrole and other conducting polymers are of interest in actuators, sensors, energy storage devices and organic electronics. The patterning of these polymers can be challenging, particularly polypyrrole due to its insolubility. This paper reports the first micropatterning of polypyrrole using hi...
